Cincinnati, OH - January 15, 2009. Automobile Consumer Services, Inc. (ACS), the leader in online direct-to-consumer auto leasing and financing, released a list of the top 10 most requested vehicles from its popular auto leasing website LeaseCompare.com. Information was collected during the second half of 2008 from more than two million lease quote requests.
"As gas prices fell in the fourth quarter, interest in the Toyota Prius and other fuel efficient models has faded." says Tarry Shebesta, President of ACS. "Quote requests for Audi's new A4 redesign and the hot selling A5s and S5s show that consumers are not ready to give up their "fun to drive" vehicles."
